hey just my first cummins and i have a question for uses. im looking to get 80 hp injecters and want to know if my 93 ic turbo can handle it. and if it makes a diffrence does it matter if i changed my exit turbo housing to a 16 cm.

 

Please fill out your signature so we know more about your truck. Is it auto or manual transmission? 4x4 or RWD? Any mods? Do you have gauges?

 

Depends on how much you turn the pump up. If you leave the pump alone and just drop in the injectors EGT's will be reasonable.

 

sorry dont really got the hang of this thing but i went and filled out my signeter. but i do plan on turning up my injecter pump as well as getting bigger injecters but i will get a diffrent turbo. but what would i want to ran for a turbo in my truck.

 

Maybe start by upgrading your existing turbo to a 60mm compressor from GDS?

 

Yea as your first turbo upgrade i'd go with a 60mm compressor kit from Gilette Diesel. Stage 3 kit for H1C is what your looking for. Its just a compressor upgrade for your existing stock turbo, not the whole turbo itself. Takes an hour or two to install.

Your stock turbo has a 56mm compressor just so you get an idea what difference this upgrade will make.

ok thanks but now my next question is when i get all the tweaks that the ve pumps have can i run that with out the egts going though the roof, with the stock turbo.

 

Yeah you'll be fine with just tweaks.

 

ok thanks guys yous been a big help

 

Your best bet is after you upgrade your turbo take the full power screw a little at a time (I know it's nearly impossible to do ) until you reach a point were your happy with the power and the egt's.

 

would do that but at the moment im broke so i cant get the turbo upgrades probly for a year or so, so im trying to get the most out of the truck with just the pump mods.

 

Well at least get a pyro guage, if you don't have it. Then turn it up until you can't keep the egt's under control. There are lots of "free"(just takes time) power upgrades th the old VE.

I wouldn't waste my money on the compressor upgrade. I would turn the pump up a little bit, not enough for EGT's to get out of hand, and then leave it alone until you have a new turbo. Before you turn the pump up though, you NEED to have gauges. At least a pyro gauge.

 

yea that was what i planed on doing
